They will throw dust on their heads, They will wallow in ashes. 31Also they will shave themselves bald for you And put on sackcloth; And they will weep for you in bitterness of soul With bitter mourning. 32Moreover, in their wailing they will take up a song of mourning for you And sing a song of mourning over you: ‘Who is like Tyre, Like her who is silent in the midst of the sea? 33When your merchandise went out from the seas, You satisfied many peoples; With the abundance of your wealth and your merchandise You enriched the kings of the earth. 34 Now that you are broken by the seas In the depths of the waters, Your merchandise and all your company Have fallen in the midst of you. 35All the inhabitants of the coastlands Are appalled at you, And their kings are horribly afraid; They have a troubled look. 36The merchants among the peoples hiss at you; You have become terrified And you will cease to be forever.’?'?’?'
